Description
The discovery of the century was thought to be the unearthing of the massive tomb of Pakal, the greatest Mayan king. Instead, deep within the pyramid, a primitive Codex was found, a book of prophecy predicting the collapse of the solar system. This ancient text was deciphered by Alan Turing, the genius who broke the German's Enigma Code during WWII, but its message was jealously guarded by the Astronomers, a lethal cult inside the Catholic Church. The story follows Noah Scott and his partner Kate as they investigate the murder and memoirs of DiShannia, a highly precocious teenager who had achieved national recognition for her research on the demise of the Mayan civilization. As they delve deeper into the mystery, they uncover clues that lead them from Washington DC to the British Museum and finally to Melbourne, Australia. Along the way, they are drawn into an unsettling narrative that weaves together two strands: the Codex and its human stories, with a third strand involving the Potter, who crafts the story and the genes that craft us all.
